Austin Valkyries Announce Coach Search

The Austin Valkyries, based in Austin, TX, are a competitive Division 1 Women's Rugby Team.

Our current coaching staff is retiring and so we are actively seeking knowledgeable rugby individuals who will be committed to building an effective and championship-caliber program beginning in Spring 2010.

Candidates are sought for the Head and Assistant Coach positions at this time.

Responsibilities include:

Developing and instructing drills for all levels of athletes

Preparing and running team practices

Developing overall and subunit team strategies

Offering constructive feedback to players

Squad selections

Attending scheduled games and practices

The Valkyries are comprised of a mix of elite, developmental, and beginner athletes. A number of our players represent the US Women's Developmental sides, as well as territorial select-sides in both XV's and VII's. Additionally, the club consistently draws individuals new to rugby.

We are able to compensate on the potential coach's needs and our resources.
